forget the soul

Half an hour later, someone knocked on the door of Yu Rong's room. Yu Rong stepped on his shoes to open the door. It was Lin Wangyue who came. He was still dressed in the same clothes, with a white jacket and gray trousers, and his eyes were still indifferent. He smiled. , the corners of his mouth were raised slightly, his smile seemed frivolous, he talked to Yu Rong: "Student, don't you, a Suzhou native, have no friends in Suzhou? Why don't you go find friends for a dinner party and harass me?"

Yu Rong blinked and said, "I don't have many friends, but I have a life."

Lin Wangyue patted his chest: "I can see that there is quite a sex life."

Yu Rong asked him: "You came from the hotel? So fast, is it Rujia on Lindun Road?"

Lin Wangyue chuckled, and with a flick of her eyes, she pushed Yu Rong away, and walked in the door talking to herself.He walked in and looked around, and said: "I'm different from you. I have so many friends that I can't handle it. I was eating at a friend's house just now, but for 5000 yuan, I immediately left my friend and came to bow down for you." "He looked around, saw enough, sat on the double bed, turned up and down, looked at Yu Rong, and said: "Your place is similar to Rujia, only the mattress is softer." He rushed to Yu Rong Nodding your chin, "Why are you torturing your shoes? Are these shoes worth tens of thousands of dollars?"

Yu Rong closed the door, put on the hotel slippers at the door, and asked Lin Wangyue, "Are you not planning to go back to England? Are you staying in Suzhou? I thought you would go to Shanghai, Beijing, etc..."

At this point, Yu Rong couldn't continue. He turned away from looking at Lin Wangyue. He opened the wardrobe and looked at the writing desk. There was a mirror hanging on the wall behind the writing desk, facing the double bed.Lin Wangyue was taking off her clothes, top, white vest, striped socks, jeans, and threw them on the bed one by one.He wore a pair of boxer shorts with big hibiscus flowers printed on them, full of tropical style.He didn't take off his underpants, bowed his back, bent his waist, raised his chin slightly and looked diagonally upwards.He is looking at Yu Rong.He asked him, "What kind of thing? What kind of thing?"

Yu Rong's eyes turned back and fell back on Lin Wangyue's real, slender and well-proportioned body. His voice was lowered, and he said, "A place that is more fashionable... Doesn't Shanghai have an international fashion week every year?" ?”

Lin Wangyue snorted, propped her body back with her backhands, shook her calves, moved her toes, and said, "You know, a talented person like me can't starve to death. I'm in China, any city, I can do it." Believe it or not, I can still go to London and Paris with this brand, do you believe it?” Suddenly, he suddenly realized: “You paid me 5000 yuan to just chat with me!” Then he rolled his eyes with a smile and was overjoyed: “Maintain the growth of social domestic demand. It's up to you foolish and rich literary youths!"

Yu Rong frowned and said, "I'm not a literary youth."

Lin Wangyue was noncommittal about this, twitched the corners of her mouth, jumped out of bed, and went to the bathroom.

Yu Rong asked him, "Would you like something to drink? Beer?"

Lin Wangyue entered the bathroom without closing the door, and replied loudly: "Can you have some confidence in yourself, you are not so ugly that I want to anesthetize myself."

Yu Rong asked again: "I don't have that much cash, can we use WeChat?"

There was a splashing sound of water, but Lin Wangyue didn't answer.Yu Rong walked to the door of the bathroom and asked again: "Is it possible to transfer money through WeChat?"

Lin Wangyue stood under the shower flushing the water, looked at Yu Rong, and smiled, but still didn't answer.For some reason, Yu Rong lost his breath, and the words he spoke were weak, and he retracted his foot when he stepped into the bathroom. He said, "You need to add friends when you transfer money."

Lin Wangyue didn't say a word, and took a small step back. In an instant, his face was covered with water drops.He closed his eyes and brushed his hair back.His fingers were so long that they penetrated into the jet-black hair, his armpits were clean, and a thick tuft of hair gathered under his belly.His cock//// cock drooped listlessly.

Lin Wangyue spoke suddenly.He said: "I can see that you really have no friends."

He was rubbing shampoo on his head, and the shampoo had a strong jasmine scent. Lin Wangyue sneezed a few times before rubbing out some white foam, and he put his head under the water to rinse again.He wrinkled his nose and directed Yu Rong: "Take a towel."

Yu Rong walked over, took a face towel and handed it to him.He asked him: "Do you usually like to watch movies?"

Lin Wangyue wiped her face and said, "You went to study film later?"

"Well, New York Film Academy."

"How did you know I went to St. Martin?"

"You said it in class, you said you wanted to go."

"St. Martin can go wherever he wants, don't you underestimate my design talent?" Lin Wangyue said angrily, unscrewed the small bottle of shower gel, smelled it, put it back, and just stood there flush.He rubs his arms, his pussy///cock, his inner thighs.All of a sudden, his whole body was covered with red marks from rubbing.

Lin Wangyue bent down and rubbed her heels, and said, "You also know that I have my own brand, and you, like directors, pay so much attention to fashion trends?"

Yu Rong turned his face away, took a bath towel from the towel rack, unfolded it, held it in his arms, and said, "A Chinese designer founded a fashion brand in the UK, and you are still so young. You are quite famous."

Yu Rong said again: "I met you once in the small commodity market. You were buying curtain cloth. I went to help my mother buy pantyhose, and you probably didn't see me."

Lin Wangyue raised her face to look at him: "You're not still in love with me unrequitedly, are you?"

Yu Rong looked at the mirror, the half-length mirror had been steamed long ago, and two afterimages were vaguely reflected, one was like a rectangle, and the other was like a fish.Yu Rong stared at the fish-like silhouette and said, "You are still the same."

"You haven't changed much." Lin Wangyue said.Yu Rong's eyelids jumped twice, he glanced at Lin Wangyue, Lin Wangyue stood up straight again, and was looking at him.It was too hot in the bathroom.Yu Rong tugged at his collar and said, "We've only been classmates in the cram school for more than two months, haven't we seen each other for more than ten years?"

Lin Wangyue smiled, with bright eyes and a sly smile.He said: "Director Yu, from this line, I can hear some sentimentality, what do you think?"

Yu Rong waved his hands again and again: "Don't call me that, I haven't directed any serious films yet."

"How many years have you graduated?"

Yu Rong said: "Being a director is not so easy. There are always people who come to talk about cooperation, but they always feel that it is not suitable. I still want to grind and read the script by myself."

"Does everyone who has graduated from the directing department of the Film Academy and has not directed a feature film for several years think that he will be the next Ang Lee?" Lin Wangyue was still flushing, looking at Yu Rong, "But you If you have money, it doesn't matter, you can continue to dream."

Yu Rong asked: "Do you really have many friends? Don't lie to me."

"Because I have a beautiful skin and an extremely hateful soul, it is easy to arouse people's desire to conquer. Don't you also like these?"

When he said this, a few drops of water trembled on his eyelashes, precariously.

Yu Rong really wanted to refute, but the random murmur in his chest overwhelmed the voice of defending himself in his head, he was also trembling, on the verge of falling, and he still had some difficulty breathing.He couldn't stay in the bathroom any longer, put down the towel on the sink, moved towards the door, and started another conversation: "Then when do you plan to make a comeback?"

"Nowadays, a piece of curtain cloth costs 200 fucking yuan." Lin Wangyue spat, turned off the water, and asked, "Do you need a fashion consultant for that documentary?"

"I don't need someone to help with anti-aircraft equipment. I'm going to Yunnan, to Bamei the day after tomorrow." Yu Rong said.

"Do you wash?" Lin Wangyue picked up a towel to wipe her body, and asked again, "Pick up girls? Is the synonym for picking up girls?"

Yu Rong explained: "Bamei, a village in Yunnan, my mother's hometown, the dam of the dam, beautiful beauty, most of the people living there are Zhuang people."

"Your mother is still a minority?"

"No, her surname is Huang."

"Huh? Isn't her surname Su?"

Yu Rong was so angry and funny, speechless, Lin Wangyue also laughed vigorously, and gestured for him to continue, Yu Rong continued: "Then go to Thailand, a small island near Burma, there is a little ghost on the island The master, the little ghost raised can go to the underworld, and will go to Japan, to Osaka, a research team at Osaka University is developing a robot, as long as a person's relevant information, his living habits, blood type, constellation, other people's information about him Whether it is his memories, his diary, written memos, or papers, anyway, any traces he left in the world are made into codes and input into the machine, so that the machine can think in this person's way, let the machine Be this person. I passed some basic information about my mother, her books, her interview materials, they are also very interested, the development is almost in progress, does it sound like science fiction?"

Yu Rong spoke a little excitedly, Lin Wangyue wrapped a towel around her waist, and leaned on the sink to look at him: "Just go to these few places?"

"Finally, go to the islands in the southern hemisphere and take pictures of volcanoes."

"What's the relationship between volcanoes and evocation?"

"There is a primitive tribe living at the foot of the volcano on Ambrym Island. There is a legend in the tribe. It is said that people who die there will become part of the volcano, and they will talk to living people in dreams."

After finishing speaking, Yu Rong was silent, and Lin Wangyue was also speechless. The two stood silently for a while, and it was Yu Rong who broke the silence. He asked Lin Wangyue: "I was in the United States before, and I went to the south to find an African goddess to take a picture. The material was roughly cut and cut, and the post-production was done, are you interested in taking a look?"

Lin Wangyue was helpless: "Student, 5000 yuan can buy a night of spring festival, but it can't buy friendship, let alone love. You have to think carefully."

Yu Rong said: "No one has given me feedback yet."

Lin Wangyue said: "Okay, you are stupid and rich, if you want, I will."

He went out, Yu Rong followed, the two added WeChat friends, Lin Wangyue received the money, sat cross-legged on the bed, opened his arms, Yu Rong handed him the laptop, and clicked on the video file on the desktop: 1 -U.S.

He sat down beside Lin Wangyue.

He started to ask again: "Do you want something to drink? Drink or water? Or tea?"

He also asked: "Do you want to eat something? I'll go downstairs to buy some snacks?"

Lin Wangyue was quiet, and Yu Rong was also quiet.The video started, and a black woman appeared on the computer screen. The sky was dark. The woman was wearing a bright yellow cloth suit with short sleeves and a long skirt. Her hair was tied up with a cloth scarf of the same style.She was standing in front of a white fence holding a rooster directly below a wooden bowl.A younger black girl stands next to the woman, near the edge of the camera, speaking English slowly.

There are Chinese subtitles below.

The girl said, "It's a one-year-old rooster, and basil leaves, and sage, and what we usually do is, we mix them together."

The black woman wiped the rooster's neck, and the chicken blood dripped down and soon filled the wooden bowl. The woman threw the cock away, picked up the wooden bowl, turned and walked away.

The camera follows her, following the blood on the ground, the woman pushes open a door, there is no light behind the door, and she can't see her fingers, she walks into the darkness, nothing can be seen in the screen, and the sound of chaotic footsteps can be heard from the stereo And the sound of breathing, and then with a squeak, the picture was brightened again, but it was not so bright. I could barely see the black woman with the wooden bowl walking into a room with a round table in the center. , room for two chairs.The light that illuminates the picture comes from many candles of various lengths lit on the ground.

"You sit here." The black girl's voice rang out from the camera. After some shaking, the angle of the camera was fixed, including the black woman who killed the chicken and Yu Rong who was sitting face to face with her. .

Yu Rong said, "Now we're going to start summoning my mother's dead soul."

He speaks English.He also said: "There is a Ouija board on the table, and I can see 26 English letters, as well as Arabic numerals from 0 to 9."

While he was speaking, the woman was holding the bowl of chicken blood, swinging her body back and forth, chanting something, after Yu Rong finished speaking, she also finished reading, and handed the chicken blood in front of him.The black girl said, "Drink it."

Yu Rong took a sip."You have to drink it all," said the girl.

Yu Rong raised his head and drank all the chicken blood.

Seeing this, Yu Rong whispered to Lin Wangyue, "The taste is really bad."

Lin Wangyue didn't answer the call, so Yu Rong also fell silent.In the video, the black woman has entered a state of ecstasy. She jumps up, beats her chest and feet in the open space, stretches her hands to the sky for a while, and slams something on the ground for a while. She seems to be dancing, and she seems to be in an irregular seizure , sometimes whispering and sometimes shouting, after ten minutes passed, the woman seemed to be exhausted and collapsed on the ground.Yu Rong wanted to see her, but the woman bounced herself. She threw herself on the table, grabbed Yu Rong's hand, and pressed it on the Ouija board.

Yu Rong asked, "Has my mother come here yet?"

The black woman sat stiffly on the chair, her eyes were open stiffly, and she did not move.The black girl explained, "You can talk to your mother now. She's in this room now." She said, "Jennifer Wong, right here now."

Yu Rong asked: "Mom, what is your mobile phone password?"

He speaks Mandarin.

The black woman is like a stone statue, and there is no response.

Yu Rong looked at the girl and asked in English, "Does she not want to answer me?"

The girl said, "You can tell her you love her."

"Mom, where did you put your favorite earrings?" Yu Rong asked again, this time in English.

The black woman still didn't move, and the girl said, "You should tell her you love her, it will let her find a way out."

As soon as she finished speaking, the video screen shook violently, and the candlelight in the room also shook, and some luminous long shadows scurried across the screen, and the black woman fell down on the table with a bang, her arms slid on the table .She points to letters on the Ouija board.

Yu Rong then read: "DAE-6."

"What do you mean?" he asked.

Lin Wangyue pressed the pause button, looked at Yu Rong, and asked, "So, what does DAE6 mean?"

Yu Rong said: "When I met them for the first time, I deliberately left my wallet there. There was a photo of me and my mother in the wallet. I edited the photo in advance. I put DAE6 on my mother's clothes. A few words, completely meaningless, a few words that came to mind suddenly."

Lin Wangyue smiled and said, "You're trying to tear things apart!"

Yu Rong said: "There will be more later. I recorded the process of my p-picture, and the part where I dropped my wallet."

Lin Wangyue continued to watch, but Yu Rong lost interest in watching. He yawned and leaned against the head of the bed with his pillow, one eye drooping.He was sleepy, very tired, looked at Lin Wangyue, wanted to say a few more words, but couldn't open his mouth again.He fell asleep smelling the pungent scent of jasmine.

When he woke up, Lin Wangyue was still in the room, smoking a cigarette while sitting in front of the desk. He put the phone to his ear, but didn't speak.He ate cigarette after cigarette.

The curtains were drawn, and it was pitch black outside.

"Dawn?" Yu Rong asked, his voice a little hoarse.

Lin Wangyue put down her phone and said, "You only slept for three hours."

Yu Rong sat up and cleared his throat.Lin Wangyue looked at him and asked him, "Aren't you afraid that I'll peep at your computer?"

"I have nothing to hide." Yu Rong said, "You have to log in with a password to view your mailbox."

Lin Wangyue said: "How does your mother write and write about things before she was 20 years old? Planting rice seedlings, sowing seeds, feeding cattle, repairing boats, fishing, drying corn, smoking bacon, empty houses without people, living in willow trees people, ruined walls."

Yu Rong said, "I don't know." He cleared his throat again, and said, "You've seen quite a few..."

Lin Wangyue said: "If you could talk to her soul, what would you want to say to her? Other than asking where the phone password and earrings are."

Yu Rong laughed, picked up the cigarette case on the bedside table, lit a cigarette, ate a cigarette, took a break, and said, "I don't know, I can't figure it out."

He sat with one leg bent: "When I brought her ashes back for burial, I invited a monk to do a ritual, and the monk in charge told me that the purpose of doing this ritual was to let her soul rest in peace and to reach the Western Paradise early. My mother believes in Buddhism and has a layman certificate. She copied the "Diamond Sutra" and "Heart Sutra" in her spare time. The great monk said that when a living person dreams of a dead person, it means that the dead person is giving dreams to the living. If she still gives me dreams after the ceremony, It means that she has not rested in peace, and her karma in this life has not been completely eliminated. I still have to find a way to deal with them, or go to their temple to offer an amulet, or buy two carp and a few turtles with him to release them. Anyway, after the funeral, I often dreamed about my mother, and I wondered why she didn’t rest in peace, did she have any unfulfilled wishes? But she had a craniotomy, which was very successful at the time, and two days after the operation , Her consciousness is very clear, she said that she has lived until now, without any regrets, but then the blood vessel ruptured again..." Yu Rong walked to the desk, shook the ash in the ashtray, and said, "I will confess The amulet, and the tortoise was released, and I finished copying a half-copy of the "Diamond Sutra" that she kept at home, but I still dreamed of her, time and time again."

Lin Wangyue asked Yu Rong: "Do you believe in heaven, paradise, hell and the underworld?"

Yu Rong said: "I also want to know where people go after death."

"After you die, if you could choose for yourself, where would you like to go?"

"Anywhere?"

"Anywhere."

"New York Museum of Modern Art..."

"You didn't choose a movie theater?" Lin Wangyue was not without surprise.

"If the movie theater plays "Fast and Furious", "Black Panther", "The Shape of Water" all day long, my head will get dizzy."

Lin Wangyue smiled and blew out smoke rings, Yu Rong asked him back, "What about you?"

"Me? I'm a traditional Chinese who is lactose intolerant. Of course I follow the tradition. Falling leaves return to their roots! Go back to my hometown!" He picked up Yu Rong's camera on his desk, pointed the lens at him, and asked him, "May I help you?" Anti-equipment, how much salary will you pay me?"
